Zhou Ming didn't object to the Chu family's proposal to break off the engagement. Instead, he was a little happy and agreed to dissolve the arranged marriage.

But now the Bai family is full of anger and murderous intent. If he dares to nod and agree to break off the engagement, he will definitely be beaten to death by the elders.

Because this marriage is not only related to his personal reputation, but also related to the reputation and honor of the entire Bai family.

The core of the problem is still face.

How would outsiders view the Bai family in Hyun Qingcheng if their marriage partner broke their promise and broke off the engagement without any evidence to blame?

Will they be laughing at the Bai family behind their back?

Even say some ugly and strange things, spread some unpleasant rumors, or even slander and ridicule?

How will the descendants of the Bai family go out to meet people in the future?

As the saying goes, a person lives with a face, and a tree lives with a skin. If you lose your face, how can the Bai family still stand in this world?

Of course, as for the reasons why the Chu family regrets their marriage, the Bai family can explain to the outside world and reveal the villainous nature of the Chu family in Bilan City who dislikes poverty and loves wealth and wants to climb high. There will definitely be understanding and sympathy from some people, and some people will stand in the Bai family's position. , accusing the Chu family of what they did... But how much harm can this do to the Chu family?

Can you conceal the fact that Hyun Qingcheng is weak and poor?

What's more, the Bai family doesn't need other people's understanding and sympathy. What the Bai family wants is face and dignity!

To have your engagement annulled is to be slapped in the face and to have your dignity trampled on!

The conflicts and hatred caused by this kind of behavior are no less than "revenge for killing one's father" or "revenge for taking wealth", and are close to sworn enemies.

It may even trigger a war between the two families!

Therefore, facing the Chu family's request to break off the engagement, the Bai family must not give in at all and must sternly refuse!

Zhou Ming himself must stand completely on the side of his family!

However, the Chu family's attitude towards breaking off the engagement was firm and unchangeable.

The Bai family wants to save face, but they don't have enough strength. They can use harsh words. If they really go head-to-head with the Chu family, they will only suffer heavy losses and their dignity will be trampled on.

But such a stalemate won't work. Neither side will give in, and the conflict will only intensify.

We must find a way to create a step.

Zhou Ming thought about it and immediately had an idea.

So he stood up and left the seat.

Walking to the center of the hall, he cupped his hands and said:

"Uncles and elders, please calm down for a moment. I have a few words that I would like to speak to the elders of the Chu family. I ask for your permission."

Hearing Zhou Ming's clear and calm words and seeing his calm demeanor, all the elders calmed down and looked at him.

The old man also wanted to hear what the grandson of the person involved had to say, so he nodded and said, "Yes!"

The elder in green robe also looked up at him and couldn't help but sigh: Although this boy is young, he behaves calmly and has the demeanor of a general.

Hearing that he wanted to ask him a few questions again, the elder in green robe even more thumped. This kid was very sharp-tongued. If a few heart-wrenching questions came to him, how should he respond?

Zhou Ming turned sideways towards him, cupped his hands slightly, and then asked: "Elder Chu, I would like to ask, how old is your Chu family's daughter Chu Tianjiao this year?"

"Age 12, the same age as you."

Elder Qingpao felt a little strange, why did he ask about this? But still answered truthfully.

"Okay, I would like to ask again, at what age do your Chu family's married women usually get married?" Zhou Ming asked again.

"Well, the early ones are sixteen, the later ones are eighteen, and there are also those who are over eighteen who marry." The elder in Qingpao replied.

"good!"

Zhou Ming nodded and said: "Since the youngest is only 16 years old when she gets married, if your Chu family wants to climb a strong branch, you don't have to be so impatient. Come and break off the engagement when you are 12 years old, right?"

There was sarcasm in his tone: "Is it possible that the Chu family wants to marry her off tomorrow?"

"this……"

The green-robed elder blushed and was speechless.

"Hahaha~"

There was a chuckle among the elders.

Zhou Ming's face suddenly became serious again, and his voice became high-pitched:

"Elder Chu, I heard the meaning of your words very clearly. The Chu family's intention to break off the engagement is clear, and their attitude is very firm. There is no possibility of turning around."

"This marriage is actually not rare for me. The sweet girl of the Chu family is as beautiful as heaven, as beautiful as a fairy, or has outstanding talents and unique talents. She is an excellent match that everyone praises, but I just don't think so. Rare!"

"There are thousands of good women in the world. If a man is born in this world, why worry about being without a wife? I am unworthy, but I will have no problem finding a good match who is ten times better than the beautiful daughter of the Chu family!" This ironclad sentence As soon as the words came out, there was a round of applause.

"but……"

Zhou Ming changed his tone and continued: "Even so, if the Chu family wants to break off the engagement, it will be difficult for the Bai family to agree to it!"

"The engagement of the Bai family was canceled for no reason. This matter spread out. Where is the reputation of my Bai family? How can I have the face to continue to gain a foothold in the world?"

"Yes, your Chu family can tear up the marriage contract and forcibly cancel the engagement. The Bai family can't do anything to you for the time being. The Bai family is poor and weak, but the Chu family can't help it. However, Hyun Qing City is developing, and our Bai family also has many talents. I look down on the Bai family. Yes, but one day, we will let you understand a truth: "

Zhou Ming pointed his finger at the top of his head and said generously and angrily: "Thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi, don't bully young people into poverty!"

As soon as these words came out.

There was a roar of applause from all around!

"Well said, well said!"

"Don't bully a young man into being poor! This metaphor is really vivid. Aren't I, Hyun Qingcheng, a strong boy of thirteen or fourteen years old? Although I am temporarily poor, I will definitely be prosperous in the future!"

"Okay, okay, the Bai family has such a Qilin son, and the marriage between the Chu family and the Bai family is not rare or cares about it!"

Even the elder in green robe looked at him blankly, his eyes sparkling.

I sighed in my heart: With such an amazing and outstanding son, why is there no one in our Chu family?

"but……"

Before Zhou Ming finished speaking, he changed his tone and said: "This marriage is a marriage between the boy. If because of the boy, the two families become enemies, turn against each other, and even cause a lot of casualties... In such a situation, the boy I really don’t want to see it.”

"For this reason, I have a suggestion. I wonder if Elder Chu is willing to listen to a suggestion that can slightly resolve this problem without causing the two families to quarrel?"

"Master Bai, please speak!"

The green-robed elder was shocked and asked quickly.

"Joust!"

"Three years later, I will have a competition with Chao Yuanhao, the young master of Yuyun City."

"If I, Bai Feiyang, lose and my skills are inferior to others, the marriage between Hyun Qing City and Bi Lan City will be automatically dissolved. From now on, the two families will have no contact with each other and will not be able to fight with each other."

"If I, Bai Feiyang, win, then Bilan City will not be allowed to break the engagement, and the engagement will still be valid."

"During these three years, Bilan City is not allowed to mention the issue of breaking off the engagement!"

"If the Chu family does not agree to this proposal and insists on breaking off the engagement immediately, our Bai family can agree to it, but from now on, the two families will be mortal enemies of each other, and our Bai family will definitely take revenge!"

Zhou Ming's meaning is very clear: three years later, he will compete with Chao Yuanhao. Whoever wins and is better will be qualified to marry Chu Tianjiao!

"well!"

"I agree, I agree on behalf of the Chu family!"

The green-robed elder almost immediately nodded in agreement. This proposal was absolutely brilliant and could be said to be the best solution.

He sighed in his heart: This kid is not only smart, but also knows how to advance and retreat. Faced with such a deadlock, he actually came up with an excellent solution that even he had not thought of.

In his heart, the green-robed elder even hoped that this boy could win the competition... although the probability was extremely low.

"No, we can't compete in martial arts. Chao Yuanhao is in the liquid condensation stage, and Yang'er is in the late stage of Qi refining. You're a big rank behind him, so you can't be his opponent."

Most of the elders of the Bai family disagree with this proposal and feel that the probability of winning is too low. If they lose then, as losers, the Bai family will still be ridiculed by the whole world.

"This is a proposal I put forward, and it is also my personal matter. If I am not sure of winning, I will never put it forward!"

Zhou Ming patted his chest, his face full of confidence, and he kept winking at the old man sitting at the top.

The old man saw that he seemed to have other words to say and there was more meaning in his eyes, so he nodded and said: "Your proposal is okay, but we need to discuss it a little bit."

The old man asked the Qingpao elder to leave the hall, and they had to discuss it again within the Bai family.

"good!"

The green-robed elder raised his hands and left the hall.

After seeing him leave, the old man walked up to Zhou Ming and said seriously: "Yang'er, are you really sure of defeating Chao Yuanhao?"

"Feiyang, you can't rely on it. If you don't have absolute certainty, our Bai family will still be embarrassed!" Several uncles also came over and said.

"Uncles, to be honest, I have accidentally broken through to the early stage of condensation recently."

Zhou Mingyun used his skills and rubbed a liquefied spirit ball in his palm - this was a sign of entering the liquid condensation stage.

Boom~!

The elders around him all opened their mouths and looked at him in surprise and joy.

"You...you kid, what kind of qualifications do you have?"

His father, Bai Xutang, smiled helplessly. He obviously had the most rubbish mortal physique, but he cultivated incredibly fast and kept bringing surprises.

And at the same level, you can be invincible.

They are relieved, and all the elders are also relieved. No matter how many pills worth ten thousand spirit coins Chao Yuanhao took, no matter how much money he spent on auxiliary magic weapons, as long as his cultivation level is the same as that of Bai Feiyang, he will definitely lose!

Stable.

This wave is stable.

Not only that, Zhou Ming also said: "Grandpa, father, and uncles, even if I win the contest with Chao Yuanhao, I still have to propose to dissolve the engagement and voluntarily give up the marriage in front of everyone in the world!"

"Bilancheng dislikes the poor and loves the rich, is treacherous, and looks down upon my Bai family. Why should my Bai family be shameless and force this marriage?"

"The beautiful girl of the Chu family is by no means a good match. I also despise the Chu family, and there is no possibility of repairing the relationship between the two families. The purpose of the young man's martial arts competition is not for the sake of women, but to prove to the world: I am a good match." In the Bai family of Qingcheng, people are poor but their ambitions are endless, and their majesty runs through the rainbow!"

After Zhou Ming finished speaking, all the elders were shocked again!

"Okay, that's very well said!"

"A poor man's ambition is not poor, and his majesty runs through the rainbow. This sentence is no weaker than the one just now. Don't bully the young man into being poor."

"Hahaha, I'm kind of looking forward to the three-year appointment coming soon. I want to see what the expressions on the faces of the Chu family, Chao family and others will be after Yang'er wins the competition and announces the dissolution of the engagement in public?"

"Hahahaha! That must be very exciting, right?!"

"My son, others haven't slapped you in the face, but you have turned around and planned to give them a slap..."

Bai Xutang had a wry smile on his face and muttered, but what he felt in his heart was...

It’s cool, it’s really cool!
